Shooting At LAX

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Thousands of passengers on planes and waiting to board flights witnessed a shooting Friday morning that wounded at least three people at Los Angeles International Airport’s Terminal 3, and many of them took to Twitter to give a live play by play of the chaos.

Several people were injured after a suspect reportedly wearing camouflage opened fire at about 9:30 a.m. According to CBS News’ John Miller, the gunman was apparently targeting TSA employees and may have killed one.

A Twitter user named Zeke Quezada tweeted that he was “freaked out,” by the sight of a lot of people running and crying.

Something must have just happened at LAX a lot of people running, crying and looking very scared. I'm freaked out.

Grant Imahara and Tory Belleci of “Mythbusters” were among the passengers in Terminal 3 when the shooting began. They were on their way to Delaware to film an episode of the show. In a statement, the Science Channel and Discovery Channel said the Mythbusters stars were safe and being rerouted.

At least two celebrities were about deplane when the gunfire erupted, included actor James Franco and musician Nick Jonas.
